Blog #132: The Calculation Magic of Wealthy and Wise®

(Presentations in this blog were created using Wealthy and Wise®.)

One of the most comprehensive evaluations of InsMark’s wealth planning system, Wealthy and Wise®, comes not from InsMark, but from a long-time licensee and close personal friend, Simon Singer, co-founder of the American Tax Planning Institute.  Simon is also a life member of Top of the Table and past president and CEO of Forum 400.

Click on Video #1 below for his 17-minute presentation, and you’ll find out why we are so impressed with his perspective on the cash flow modeling features of Wealthy and Wise.

Video  #1

Next, if you would like to see the Wealthy and Wise software in action as it performs its cash flow modeling, click on Video #2 below, an InsMark presentation that involves a somewhat similar Case Study as Video #1.  Please pay particular attention to the section of Video #2 between minutes 1:30 - 3:55 where screen shots of Wealthy and Wise data entry are featured that determine the best order of accessing assets for the most efficient retirement income and long-range net worth.

The remaining four minutes of Video #2 extend the evaluation to include a Roth conversion (tax cost paid by asset withdrawal) coupled with gifts to an irrevocable trust for the purchase of life insurance, the combination of which is especially efficient for the couple involved in the analysis.

Video  #2

Note:  Many clients are reluctant to engage in a Roth conversion due to the income tax consequences.  Using assets as a source of the tax almost always results in higher overall net worth; thus, the tax should properly be viewed as an investment, not a cost.  This change in perception is of critical value to a client, and only Wealthy and Wise can reflect it accurately due to its cash flow modeling strategies.

The American Tax Planning Institute (ATPI)

Click here to review the mind-blowing benefits of ATPI membership.  I have personally attended two quarterly meetings hosted by ATPI co-founders Simon Singer and Rao Garuda.  In my opinion, there is nothing available that comes close to it as a sales and marketing resource.  One of the benefits of a ATPI Platinum or Gold membership that we are most proud of is that ATPI pays all the fees for each such member to be licensed for InsMark’s Platinum Power Producer suite of products¹.

¹Retail licensing fee for the InsMark’s Platinum Suite of products consists of a $4,995 initial fee and an ongoing monthly fee of $295 which covers all enhancements and upgrades as well as technical support.

InsMark’s Referral Resources
(Put our Illustration Experts to Work for Your Practice)

We created Referral Resources to deliver a “do-it-for-me” illustration service in a way that makes sense for your practice. You can utilize your choice of insurance company, there is no commission split, and you don’t have to change any current relationships. They are very familiar with running InsMark software.

Please mention my name when you talk to a Referral Resource as they have promised to take special care of my readers. My only request is this: if a Referral Resource helps you get the sale, place at least that case through them; otherwise, you will be taking unfair advantage of their generous offer to InsMark licensees.

Save time and get results with any InsMark illustration.  Contact:

• Ben Nevejans, President of LifePro Financial Services in San Diego, CA.

Stephen Rothschild, CLU, ChFC, CRC, RFC, International Forum Member, Saint Louis, MO

“For three decades, InsMark software has been the leader in presentation software for life insurance.  However, my favorite retirement, estate and charitable planning software is InsMark’s Wealthy and Wise combined with DOD (Documents on a Disk).  Nothing holds a candle.  If you are in the retirement, estate or charitable planning arena, this is the easiest AND most powerful software on the planet.  I highly recommend it.”
